“…Finally, the second group consists of all those structural factors that characterize an endodontic instrument, such as the cross-sectional design, the type of the alloy and its crystallography phase, the manufacturing processes, the pitch, the helix and the rake angle, the length of the instrument and the taper [ 49 , 55 , 62 , 63 , 64 ]. As many studies have shown, the design of the cross-section is one of the most important parameters that can significantly determine the torsional stiffness of a NiTi endodontic instrument, since it thoroughly influences its mechanical properties [ 62 , 65 , 66 ].…”
